Refund Policy

You are eligible for a refund if you cancel your Cambridge English exam before the test date or if you are absent on the test day under the conditions below.

Full Refund

You will receive a full refund if:

  • your cancellation request is submitted within 14 days of registration (payment date) and before the exam date.

Partial Refund

You will receive a refund minus a 30% administration fee if the cancellation request is made under the following circumstances:

  • the request is submitted 14 days after the date of registration (payment date), but before the registration deadline for the test
  • illness or a medical incident on the exam day
  • bereavement (loss of a close family member)
  • hardship or trauma (for example, being a victim of crime or being involved in a traffic accident)
  • military service

Submitting a Refund Request

If you are absent on the test day for one of the reasons listed above, your refund request must be submitted using this form within three days of the test date, and must include the required supporting evidence (e.g., a doctor’s certificate confirming you were unable to take the test, a police report confirming the circumstances of a traffic accident, etc.).

If we do not receive both your request and the supporting documentation within three days after the test, you will be marked as absent and will forfeit all claims.

Please note that refunds may take four to six weeks to process. If approved, a refunded amount is issued using the same payment method at registration.

If you have any questions, please contact us.

Requesting a Test Day Transfer

If you need to change the exam date you originally booked, you may request a free test day transfer if registration for your current test date is still open using this form.

The new test date must be within three months of your original exam date. A transfer can be offered only if a session of the same test type is available at your examination centre within this period. You can check available sessions on our website.

We can offer a one-time test day transfer. If the new date is not suitable, no further transfer can be granted. In such cases, the standard cancellation policy applies.
